ebay topmount... anyone running one?

[ESone3]

I did a search and there is no discussion about actually running with a top mount. I'm very curious about this and i'd like some feedback.

thanks

Thanks

Why would you need an NPT on the 4th runner?

I m runing a BMPC T3/T3 Top Mount, cant really tell much about how good it is tho because my car isnt running yet. ill tell you some info that might help tho as far as what i have had to do so far because of the mainfold. i have to get custom turbo down pipe, and hot pipe had to buy studs for the turbo, had to clock my turbo, i have to find a plug for a port it has and thats it so far.

I dont remember how much i paid for it becuase i bought it at the local drag strip. the company its self is a local company that i have delt with before as a source of motors and they have been pretty good. i know all there e-bay parts they have mass made in china becuase i talked with one of the owners. i m also running there FMIC which needed a TON of custom mounting work.

My advice tho save up the money and buy the peek boost kit, or the kit they sell on HT. after what i paid for the mainfold and what i m going to pay on piping its gonna cost about the same if not more. :duh:
